The earthquake with a magnitude of 6 occurred on the night from Sunday to Monday, severely affecting the Kunar province, at the border with Pakistan. The Taliban government estimates that hundreds of people may have died, while local sources confirm at least 21 dead and 35 injured in one village. Access difficulties in the affected areas, along with communication problems and blockages caused by landslides, complicate the assessment of the situation. Helicopters are being mobilized to transport the injured to hospitals.
